12-Month "Seasoning": A company must trade publicly on a major exchange for at least 12 months. Got to wait until at least next year

Profitability: A company must report positive GAAP net income over the most recent quarter, and over the last four quarters combined. Starlink is profitable, and the rockets are almost break even. xAI, Twitter and all the other shit means a 5bn loss

Float Requirements: The company must have a sufficient amount of its shares available for public trading (at least 10%). SpaceX float was 4.3%. More shares need to be offered
